While I will not argue that everyone can draw, because to some extent that is very true - practice does make perfect - I will say that I think some people are definitely born with a gift for it, much like how the Bible says some have the gift of speaking, of teaching, of leading, etc.<br />If a person works at it, yes they can definitely get better. But those with the true gift of it that God put in their heart have more of a passion, a talent for it, and it shows. Just my personal thoughts. :) But I do agree that everyone can draw if they work at it.Raechelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11845190071944799602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8219594873450855214.post-43958781649901096512017-04-07T14:00:33.496-07:002017-04-07T14:00:33.496-07:00Thanks Audrey!

If you want to see more post like this then maybe I'll do a post where you all help me chose what to draw next.Marrok Macintyrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04209344267823649773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8219594873450855214.post-50729996408857958082017-04-06T19:38:09.685-07:002017-04-06T19:38:09.685-07:00WOW.

Okay, I...WOW. This is a super cool, inspiring post!<br />Okay, I won't say I can't draw. ;) This reminded me that I CAN be a good artist if I invest the time and practice. I guess it's like that with everything in life -- put in enough hours and effort, and you'll be good at it.<br />It's really amazing to see how your drawing progressed! And digital art is SO awesome. I'd definitely enjoy more posts like this!<br /><br /><a href="http://audreycaylin.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">audrey caylin</a>Audrey Caylinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113941859200338215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8219594873450855214.post-70336380527515165592017-04-06T11:40:43.060-07:002017-04-06T11:40:43.060-07:00Thanks!

The software I use is called GIMP it's a totally free (totally legal) art platform. So what kind of tips would you want to see? tips on digital art or traditional paper art? tips on style? Let me know!Marrok Macintyrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04209344267823649773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8219594873450855214.post-227860595304754312017-04-06T11:39:10.765-07:002017-04-06T11:39:10.765-07:00Thanks Karyssa!
I know what you mean about somet...Thanks Karyssa! <br /><br />I know what you mean about sometimes being good. Sometimes when I draw I'm like "hey it's looking half decent" then the next time I'm drawing it's like "what the heck? why does it look so bad". If you noticed towards the end of my "drawing evolution" there are three guys all in the same position, two of them look half decent and the other looks just bad. They where all drawn a day apart. Just goes to show you that some days will be off days (I have a ton of those). And other will be good!<br /><br /> Okay sweet! What exactly would you want to know about traditional paper art?

I've tried some drawing a few times, and it seems to vary. Sometimes it will be really good, and then other times it's like, "What were you trying to do?" :P And I don't know why.<br /><br />I really REALLY like your digital art. I would love to know more about how you do that. But I'd also like to know more about traditional paper art, probably because that's what I do most. Not sure if that helps. :P<br /><br />Thank for sharing! I look forward to more posts! :)Karyssa Nortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13469027415320711509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8219594873450855214.post-83916106707218407752017-04-06T09:05:30.219-07:002017-04-06T09:05:30.219-07:00Wow!

Maybe in your next post you could give some tips on how you do that and what software you use? I'm really curious!Therru Ghiblihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04098040947163940991noreply@blogger.com
